What is the common language for scientific naming?
For scientific naming? None of the Above. Latin is used most often for scientific names. We have Carolus Linnaeus to thank for that.
Reply:For making up names for sciency things, that would be a combination of greek and Latin, not any of those, however, English is practially the official language of science.
Reply:I agree
Reply:Latin... Some scientific disciplines are heavy research-wise in a specific language. I understand that Paleontology has lots of German language research. You would have to ask the Chair of your dissertation committee to learn what language or languages you will need to learn to be a lifelong science scholar.
